Library Volunteers

Library Volunteers

The library benefits from many wonderful volunteers, both short- and long-term. Our current volunteer opportunities are limited to participation in our Friends and Foundation groups. Future opportunities will be posted on our website and via the Skagit Volunteer Center.

The volunteer program at the Burlington Public Library is a win-win proposition:

• The volunteers have satisfying experiences
• Their service helps us meet the needs of the people we serve

The reasons people choose to volunteer are as varied as the volunteers themselves. Here are a few:

• "It's an opportunity to serve, and I get to be around books!"
• "It's fun, and I get to meet new people."
• "It's the way I get out into the world - it's stress relief for me."
• "I feel valued and appreciated, and it feels good to help."
• "The library was important to my girls, growing up. Now I can give back.

Teen Volunteers

Teen volunteer opportunities are available throughout the year. More information is available on our Teen page.
